We sought training to help our dog, Oscar, with his fearful reactivity. Freddie was amazing and immediately recognized that Oscar had taken on a role in our “pack” that did not fit his personality and it was causing him stress. Freddie taught us how to redirect Oscar’s nervous energy and communicate with him in a way he understands, and how to interpret what Oscar was trying to communicate to us. All of this has allowed him to take on a more appropriate pack role and be more comfortable. Applying what Freddie taught us, we could see that Oscar was more relaxed after the first session and after a few sessions it was like we had a whole new unspoken language to use with him. Oscar's sweet nature continues to emerge as we continue to apply what we learned.

Where do I start! Freddie is an amazing dog trainer. But I feel “trainer” isn’t the right word. He is dog translator! We adopted our beagle, Wally, at 10 months old, and let me tell you the first few weeks were incredibly stressful. Long story short, Freddie showed us that Wally felt the same. He was as equally stressed as we were. Which was the cause of most of his “behavior issues.” It turned out, it wasn’t Wally. It was us. Freddie is so good at translating dog language to human language. He showed us that Wally was acting out in response to our emotions/actions. Freddie taught us to to be calm. I can’t emphasize the word “calm” enough. Freddie taught us that calm AND confidence, was the answer to Wally’s “behavior issues”. Dog’s “behavior issues” = is a response to what us humans are exerting. The problem is us humans! Not your dog! It has been over a year since Freddie last visited our house. Wally is now the heart of our family. Wally is the center of our family life every day! Freddie truly helped us to understand and learn how to communicate with Wally. Thank you Freddie!

Peace of mind! After working with our trainer, Freddie, not only has our 7-month old puppy's behavior improved, but we are feeling SO much better as pet parents. Having only had our dog for a few weeks, we were in over our heads - Googling, reading, desperate to find somewhere (or someone) to just tell us what to do. Enter Freddie! Freddie gave us real life, real-time practical strategies that we could immediately put into practice. He made it simple, but still explained the "why" (which made us feel even more confident). Thank you, to a true "Dog's Best Friend".

Working with Freddie was a transformative experience, not only for our dog but also for us as owners/partners in crime. We learned about our pup's behavior and how to support his growth while maintaining a healthy developmental environment. Freddie was thoughtful, and caring and showed immense passion when working with us. We will take his learnings and continue to strive for better outcomes. We cannot recommend Freddie and Your Dog's Best Friend enough!

Our dog Rydell has been completely transformed since working with Adam and Neil! Even our friends and family have noticed a difference! They worked hard to understand her unique personality and offered tailored exercises and practices to help build her confidence. We are able to have people over again and she plays super well with our neighbors dogs now! We will always recommend them to our friends!
